[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CNN has the video. It's an open boat, people are visible, and they just blow it up. 
Obama's drone strikes were definitely problematic legally, but on the other hand they were directly related to a shooting war.

Al Qaeda and ISIS had military and political goals. I don't see that as the case with purely criminal drug gangs.

I'm not sure I see much of a difference between Islamic terrorists and Narco terrorists. They both bring death.

And the cartels are as vile and evil as ISIS. The way the cartels torture people is probably even worse than the Islamic extremists. These cartels are serious organizations. And they should be taken seriously.

[b]If the intelligence was good,[/b] I think the US Navy did the world a favor taking out these Venezuelan drug traffickers. And I suspect at least 80 percent of Americans would support using our military to hit cartels. I don't think people in Bethesda or Alexandria realize how devastating drugs have been to other communities - both urban and small town America. We are losing more than 100,000 people a year because of people like these Venezuelans. Killing eleven of them probably saved the lives of hundreds of Americans who didn't OD on their crap. [/quote]

There is no one doing drug intelligence in the US government. All those people and resources are dedicated to rounding up day laborers and demanding proof of citizenship in DC. This was a hit. Most likely a cartel was not making payments to Trump and his republican underlings. This had not to do with stopping drugs or “saving” people in the US.

The US military is not about keeping US citizens safe or protecting freedoms. [/quote]

You have it mistaken, all the intelligence assets are hard at work making stuff up about the conflict in Ukraine. [/quote]
